High-Risk Roads and Intersections in Arvada
Wadsworth Boulevard and Ralston Road carry heavy commuter and commercial traffic, creating collision risk. Indiana Street and I-70 are also common sites of serious accidents. Debris, weather, distracted drivers, and road defects all factor into injury claims we handle.
If you were injured on any Arvada roadway, we gather police reports, witness statements, and traffic data to establish liability. We also examine whether road maintenance failures or design flaws contributed to your accident.
The Arvada Police Department responds to collisions and injury incidents across the city. A police report creates an official record and often identifies the at-fault party. We obtain and analyze these reports to build your claim. If police negligence or delayed response worsened your injury, we investigate that angle as well.

Arvada Personal Injury FAQ
How much does it cost to hire McCormick & Murphy, P.C.?
We work on contingency. You pay no attorney fees unless we recover compensation for you. Court costs and expert fees may be advanced by us and collected from your settlement or judgment. Our goal is to remove financial risk from your decision to pursue your claim.
How long do I have to file a personal-injury lawsuit in Colorado?
Colorado's statute of limitations is generally two years from the date of injury for negligence and personal-injury claims. Wrongful-death claims have a two-year limit. Missing this deadline bars your lawsuit. Contact us quickly to preserve your rights.
What if the injury happened on a city property or street in Arvada?
Claims against Arvada or Jefferson/Adams county entities are subject to the Colorado Governmental Immunity Act. Notice requirements and damage caps may apply. We navigate these specialized rules to maximize your recovery.
Do I need a police report to file a personal-injury claim?
A police report is helpful but not always required. We can still pursue your claim based on witness testimony, medical records, photographs, and expert analysis. However, if police responded, we obtain and use that report to establish liability.
Should I accept the first settlement offer?
Rarely. Insurance companies often start low. We evaluate your medical prognosis, lifetime costs, pain and suffering, and lost wages to determine fair value. We negotiate aggressively and litigate if necessary to achieve the outcome you deserve.
